At 4, I was introduced to Art when I was given a book of Paul Klee and a book of Giorgos Bouzianis.
I am interested in nature, water, chaos, the fractalistic structure of the universe and the interconnection of all things and beings, under the philosophy and practices of Deep Ecology.

One of my Paintings, {"Man Bites Snake",270x170cm, mixed media on wooden panel} belongs to the Collection of the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art, in Thessaloniki. I' ve worked as a Fine Art and Photography instructor at several public and private schools and other education institutes.
Some years ago, i used to shoot on super8 but now, minidv sadly and gladly has taken its place. I love to do Videoart with no narrative content.I want video to be the tool for a "kinetik" work with Painting's qualities.
